A TRIO OF WIVES.
Two Applications for Pension on the
same Man.


same Man.
Frank Darling. of this city. special pen
sion agent, Il investigating very peculiar
case. The facts unearthed so far are about
as follows Mrs. Daniel Tenney. of Stan
ton. has applied for pension on the ground
of being the widow of an old soldier.
Daniel Tenney has also applied for pen
sion in the Pennsylvania district and is not
dead as his wife had supposed. Tenney is
now 90 years old and lives in Pennsylvania.
In 1865 he disappeared from his first wife
in Pennsylvanis and was mourned as dead.
In 1880 he appears AZ Stanton, Michigan,
and about two years later disappears
from SIAN ton. A mans dead body
was found in the woods near by with Ten
nsy's clothing on. and q, the body was so
mangIed that il could not be recognized, il
was thought to be Tenney, and again he
was mourned as dead. He. however, ap-
peared &C bis old home in Pennsylvania
again and asks his first wife to receive him
back. but she would not relent, and moved
West 10 get rid OF him. He soon after mar
ried another wife. The Mrs. Tenney at
Stanton is nearly blind. but has a daughter
10 years old who cares for her. The ques-
ton now is. how come Tenneys clothing
on the dead man found near Stanton?
